Asperger’s Are Us formed on the North shore of Massachusetts in the summer of 2010 after New Michael Ingemi, Jack Hanke and Ethan Finlan graduated from summer camp where Noah Britton was their counselor. The four of them have been performing original sketch comedy shows ever since.

Audiences don’t usually know what to expect from Asperger’s Are Us, a Boston sketch comedy troupe made up solely of artists on the autism spectrum. Will they use self-deprecating humor about life with Asperger’s syndrome? Are they hoping to shed light on a serious condition? Will they be something like Sheldon, the socially inept character on CBS’s “The Big Bang Theory”?
The answer, it turns out, is none of the above.

"Instead of focusing on the condition, the four men who make up the troupe — Noah Britton, New Michael Ingemi, Jack Hanke and Ethan Finlan — perform skits and monologues that reflect their thoughts, perspectives and offbeat sensibilities, often characterized by deadpan and absurd humor." - New York Times.
